Claudine Kitchen & Bakeshop - Porter Ranch — Restaurant in Los Angeles

TERRIBLE! Drove to meet family for breakfast here over 25 miles and what a disappointment!!! Ridiculous prices $30.00 for 1 person for breakfast? I ordered egg whites omelette with bell peppers, avocado, and tomatoes. Had to pay extra for toast (said it was gluten-free), it was a bun! The presentation was poor as well! The butter had completely melted from them placing it on a warm plate! There were NO bell peppers at all in my omelette, They placed a cocktail napkin on my plate next to the food which then due to the heat of the food, adhered the napkin to the plate leaving black paper napkin remnants in my food. There was NO salt & pepper on our table, and the next table we borrowed it from was empty!

Needless to say, we informed mgmt of our disappointment and requested a refund. My brother’s food was also a huge disappointment- greasy potatoes, and his omelette although with yolks was not yellow but the color of yams!

We will NOT be back! Don’t waste your time...

They've only been open for about 2 months and I wanted to give it a try since it had some good reviews.

The Good: the location is prime, there's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. I had the Salmon Miso Bowl. It was good but nothing too special.

The Bad: This is NOT a dine in restaurant, it's an order at the cashier and a food runner will bring you your food. That's the only two times you speak with one of their employees. I don't know if the setup is a self service type of setup or if their waiters/customer service is nonexistent. You have to get up and refill your own waters which is annoying to keep getting up mid conversation. They also have a sign saying to limit your stay to 90min during peak hours which I understand, but definitely...

ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL! I had the salmon bowl and it was exquisite. I’ll be one of my to go dishes at this place. It’s delicious, healthy, fun to have different veggies. The Chef really nailed it with the sauce. Also, I had a vanilla latte with almond milk which was delicious and well made not overly sweet like other places. All the deserts look Amazing! I had the blondie, it is a great combination of pastry meets great snack and it’s really filling too. I like that they cut it in a big portion. Parking is super easy and free around the plaza. They have an outdoor and indoors area. I love the design and atmosphere of the restaurant. It’s feels so cozy. Love the chairs! Very stylish. The staff is friendly. You have to try this place! It’s my...
